<p>
Track templates simplify recording of new material by reusing tried and true
I/O and processing settings. They are listed in the <kbd class="menu">Add
Track/Bus/VCA</kbd> dialog below regular options such as audio and tracks,
busses, and VCAs.
</p>
<p>
Each track templates stores the entire state of a track it was created from:
</p>
<ul>
<li>I/O configuration including sends and inserts</li>
<li>State of mixer controls (mute, solo, solo iso/lock etc.)</li>
<li>All the processors and their settings</li>
</ul>

<p>
To create a new track template, <kbd class="mouse">right</kbd>-click the
name of the track in its mixer channel and select
<kbd class="menu">Save Track Template…</kbd>
</p>
<p>
In the newly opened dialog, add a description for the template, then
give it a name that will be displayed in the <kbd class="menu">Add
Track/Bus/VCA</kbd> dialog, click <kbd>Save</kbd>.
</p>
<p>
A slightly verbose description of a template will be helpful when there are
multiple similar templates available.
</p>

<p>
Track templates are managed in the same dialog as session templates.
</p>
<p>
You can rename existing templates to help differentiate between similar
options, change the description, or remove an existing template.
</p>
<p>
Addiitonally, you can export all track templates to an archive for sharing,
or import track templates from an archive that someone shared with you.
